This is very exciting news, but I wouldn't quite go touting it as a cure yet. Here's some more info - <a target=_blank class=ftalternatingbarlinklarge href="http://www.cff.org/aboutCFFoundation/NewsEvents/3-29-Phase-3-VX-770-in-Children-Shows-Improvement.cfm">http://www.cff.org/aboutCFFoun...-Shows-Improvement.cfm</a>

Not to be a downer, but Vertex drugs are not a cure. Dr Beall was very specific in saying this. They have improved lung function on average by 10%. While this is wonderful news, it it not a cure. It will be closer to a "cure" for newborns. It should be available to the public next year.

You said they basically have a cure for Cf and it increases your lung function by like 80-90%, which is not true. I was just posting as to not give false hope to other young people or especially the mothers that read this site.
